Lyon is a many-faceted city, and Olivier was the right person to bring out all its subtleties. He is a native and took us back through ancient history and recent developments with equal ease and enthusiasm. For me, the art attractions are a toss up between the gorgeous mosaics in Notre Dame and the city murals that are detailed beyond belief. And the Museum of Fine Arts—way surprising in its depth and breadth.

Olivier, our private guide, was incredible. He had such an in depth knowledge of Lyon that we learned 2000 years of Lyonais history and culture. We explored the entire city. We saw the major attractions including Fourviere Hill, The Romam Amphitheater, Old Lyon and its traboules and cathedral, the Mur de Canuts, Halles Market, the silk printing shops, the Rhone and Soane Rivers, bridges, Place Bellacour, park d'oro, and so much more. I would definitely recommend our guide and this tour company.
